Layoffs wreck studios. Institutional knowledge is SO valuable in the games industry. When you eventually replace that laid off employee, I don’t care if they’ve got 30 years of experience and dozens of games under their belt. They still have to learn the pipeline, the software, the systems.

I was a Firaxis narrative designer/writer and lost my job today. Any help sharing leads on new opportunities would be great! Over 3.5 years, I contributed to Civilization VII and Marvel’s Midnight Suns, helping turn maps, mechanics, and chaos into memorable stories. See my work benreeves.carrd.co

Hi! I was laid off from Firaxis this morning. I wrote leaders and civs for Civilization VII (NDA for now) and Deadpool and Storm for Marvel's Midnight Suns. I also wrote the award-nominated Hindsight. I'm available for full time, remote work starting ASAP. DMs are open: emmkid.info

I got laid off from Firaxis today. I helped ship Marvel's Midnight Suns DLC and Civilization VII, and would love to talk to you about mid level Producer roles.

you’re at home. I’m in the rotting fruit room in the national gallery. We are not the same.

amtrak’s marketing team gets it

do you think there’s discourse in the mario kart universe about non racers paying insurance that end up being spent by racers or is there like a tiered system

you approached that peach coin with bad energy and a karmic debt, that’s why you missed it. I missed it cause I can’t fucking drive

getting back into vocaloid now I guess

Im so sick i cant do anything but watch people do stuff and be jealous thats not me

NEVER doubt a reveluv

coining a new game design term, “pikmin trauma” this is when you start counting the player’s days and without ever implying consequences they will panic that something will come to kill them

An old BMO I did for Earth Day I still like.

stumbled into a side of tiktok that has a long conspiracy about how geological formations are actually ancient dragons and I have to watch every video that pops up in my feed. They’ve introduced giant swords now.

today I said goodbye to my wife for a couple months as she visits home :( we’re always such cry babies

Hi friends it’s my 29th birthday today 😎🔥🎂 If you enjoy my art - I’d love it if you could rt and consider me for your next project if you need a (human!) artist. I have a ton of experience working with so many studios, companies, brands as a cover artist and poster artist. Thank you

when you work in games you’ll be watching a livestream and suddenly your boss’s boss’s boss shows up on screen with no warning and you yelp out of fear and confusion

Actually in general I feel like fanart as a pillar of fandom has fallen much farther from where it used to be. Maybe it’s just my niches or maybe it was tumblr’s system but man it used to be much more core to the ecosystem

Was talking on the other site about how kpop fanart as a niche is dead and I’m curious if it can live on other sites. I feel like half of it *is* a site problem, but the other half is just. how fandom has changed.

unfortunately any commitment to draw falls on me at exactly past my bedtime o clock when I’m sitting in bed trying to sleep

Tomogatchi gamers, we've won.

worst week of my life… so far 🫶

I love watching streams of people playing games however I end up having massive holes in my recollection of the game as I fall asleep exactly 45 mins in

saying thank you to the train when i get to my stop because i understand that it is a type of creature

happy miku daaaaay #ミクの日 #ミクの日2025 #pixelart #ドット絵

the arc of history is long. it's long as hell. it's just—whew. it's a long-ass arc, is all I can tell you.

Fell to my knees today learning we not only decommissioned all the space shuttles the design itself is just not the optimal way to do human missions

are they, you know, friends of Jimbo?
